Countries

Summaries of relevant biodiversity information organised by country or territory.

Any country or territory can be party to different mixes of biodiversity-related conventions and treaties, and contain a variety of protected areas and biodiversity designations. The Countries guide aims to collate this information in one place for ease of access, and to provide a different way of navigating the A-Z. Each category is linked to an online source for more information where relevant.

The information presented does not imply the expression of any opinion whatsoever on the part of the Secretariat of the United Nations concerning the legal status of any country or territory.
